I was about 7 years old and we were walking in Kings Wood. She said "Don't eat that berry, it will poison you." I then ate a sloe and bitterly regretted that - spent the afternoon wondering if I was going to die.

I think my mum would have done anything for me to be interested in boys when I was younger. She adored TBG and I think that if we'd divorced, they would have kept him and tossed me out of the family. :D
